Song bird

Song bird

A Poem by Dave W.
"

Some things are not yours

"
Beautiful song bird 
I would you were mine 
to myself alone you'd sing 

in a cage pristine plumage I'd spy 
I would be your everything 

but in the dark 
feathers would dim 
your song quiet with time 

no longer the glory 
you had on your own
when you'd soar 
the bright blue sky

It's enough to see 
you from afar
and hear your 
tremolo cry

To see you drift 
through clouds above
this moment 
captured in time

Thank you Tumi, I wonder how the song would sound, what the melody would be......
wonderful writing. reads like music. somethings may not be ours, most things are not. it's hard to hold onto things, rather we flow like a river enjoying the things on our way :)
